But the amazing thing is that there 45 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,519 Speaker 1: are some physicists out there that think that those other 46 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,399 Speaker 1: yous they might be real. They might be out there, 47 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 1: they might be living your other lives. 48 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 3: And this is not a theory or an idea. They 49 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 3: think it might be reality. 50 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: That's right, somewhere out there, there's another podcast talking about 51 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 1: whether you might be real. 52 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 3: I am Hooorhe number one thousand and seventy six, And 53 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 3: in this universe, I am a cartoonist. 54 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: And I'm Daniel number zero, and I'm a particle physicist. 55 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 1: I smashed particles together that large hadron collider. 56 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 3: Oh wow, so this time I get we get Daniel 57 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 3: number zero like the original. 58 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: This is the prototype. Yes, so you know it might 59 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: not all be functioning. There's still some bugs being worked out. 60 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 1: This is a beta version of Daniel. 61 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 3: Daniel zero point zero, Daniel the Mold, And this is 62 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 3: our podcast Daniel and Jorge explain the universe. 63 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 1: And this time we're not just gonna take the universe 64 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 1: and explain it to you in a way that actually 65 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 1: makes sense. We're gonna go bigger. We're gonna go beyond, 66 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: We're gonna go multi, We're going. 67 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 5: Plaid beyond the universe. Bigger than the universe, that's right, 68 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,119 Speaker 5: Bigger than the universe. We're gonna think about the depths 69 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 5: of infinity. What is infinity? How far can you go? 70 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 5: How infinite is the universe? Are there other universes out there? 71 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 5: I know this sounds like a crazy call in show 72 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 5: you might have at three in the morning on an 73 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 5: AM radio station, but it's a real science podcast to 74 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 5: be on the program. 75 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 3: The multiverse, ultiverse, multiverse. 76 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: It's echoing through all those other universes. 77 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 3: Right, Oh, that's right. 78 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. The multiverse is an amazing concept, mostly because it 79 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: gets you to think about the concept of infinity. You 80 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: know how if things really go on forever and you 81 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 1: get to try everything, then anything that's possible eventually will happen. 82 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 3: No matter how improbable, it's probably happening in an infinite multiverse. 83 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: That's right. That's the wonderful, mind bending concept of the 84 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: of the multiverse. That's what makes it such an attractive, 85 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: like philosophical idea. I mean, the multiverse is really penetrated 86 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,479 Speaker 1: into into culture. And I know that because when I 87 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 1: was typing multiverse into my phone, it auto corrected for 88 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: multiverse like that's a word in my phone's library, which means, 89 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: you know, it must be a real thing, right. 90 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:52,920 Speaker 3: So not multiplication not you know something basic the multiverse 91 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 3: was to go to with multi. 92 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a really smart device, like, oh, are you 93 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 1: talking about the multiverse? Yeah, yeah, let's complete the multiverse. 94 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 1: My phone is totally ready for this podcast. 95 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 3: I know all about the multiverse. The machines know. 96 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: That's right. So in today's episode, we thought we would 97 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 1: take the concept of the multiverse and break it down 98 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: for you. Explain to you what is it, Why is 99 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 1: it a real thing? Why do scientist talk about it? 100 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: And are they actually crazy? 101 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 3: Is it even possible that there is more than one 102 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 3: universe out there? 103 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: That's right? Does not even make sense? 104 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 3: And as usual, Daniel went out and asked people on 105 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 3: the street if they knew what the multiverse was. 106 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: Before you hear them, think to yourself, what is your 107 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 1: idea of the multiverse? How would you answer this question? 108 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 3: Here's what people had to say. 109 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,359 Speaker 1: Do you know what the multiverse is? Not? Really? Have 110 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 1: you heard of the multiverse? 111 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 6: No? 112 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: I haven't you heard of the multiverse? 113 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 7: No? 114 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 1: No? 115 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 8: No? 116 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 6: Wow. My impression from having been around this kind of 117 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 6: science for a few years is that it's a bit 118 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 6: fantastical and it does not seem likely to be the truth. 119 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 3: I think of it as like clus series of like 120 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 3: our universes are like all kind of connect to each other, 121 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 3: bar separate. That's from comic books, isn't it okay? So 122 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 3: most of the people didn't seem to know what the 123 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 3: multiverse was, which was surprising to me as a comics 124 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 3: fan who was very familiar with the DC Universe, multiverse 125 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 3: and the Marvel multiverse. 126 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 1: That was my favorite answer, the one person who said, 127 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: isn't that a thing from comic books? I love that answer. 128 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: I love that answer, and I should reveal a secret way, 129 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: which is one of these answers was from my wife. Oh, 130 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,039 Speaker 1: I will not tell you which one. I will not 131 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: tell you which one, and for the purpose of continuing 132 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: her anonymity, but one of those. 133 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 3: Is her answers interesting? You mean the one with the 134 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 3: beautiful voice, right. 135 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 1: The one where she's like, this is a ridiculous question, 136 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: and I can't believe you're interviewing me for your podcast. 137 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 1: So many better things to do. 138 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 3: I'm trying to make dinner here now. 139 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 1: I make dinner. Excuse me, No, no, I make dinner. 140 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 1: I interviewed her while I was making dinner. Oh right, anyway, 141 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: But a lot of people. Yeah, do they just haven't 142 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 1: even heard of it, right, Like, yeah, some people haven't 143 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 1: heard it at all. 144 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's in because and this is one of these 145 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 3: words that you would think sort of explain itself just 146 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:14,239 Speaker 3: with the word multiverse, like a multiple universe, and nobody 147 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 3: sort of even try to guess. 148 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't think that explains itself. I mean, 149 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: if you ask me the question what is on multiverse? 150 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: I might say it's a poem with multiple stanzas, you know, 151 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: like multiverse. I wouldn't necessarily think crazy physics theory that 152 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: spans the depths of infinity or comic book and concepts. 153 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: And you know, I have a quibble with the word, 154 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: you know, like if universe is supposed to mean everything, 155 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: then how can there by definition be a multiverse, right, 156 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: Like you can't have multiple everything's. 157 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 3: It's like a universe, that's right. 158 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: If I say give me all your money, and you 159 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: give me all your money and then and then you 160 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: still have money, then you haven't really given me all 161 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: your money, right. I want to I want to rob 162 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: the multi base? 163 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 3: What is the multiverse? 164 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: The multiverse is a concept in physics which tries to 165 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: grapple with infinity, and it grapples with infinity in multiple 166 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: different ways. So there's the multiverse, but it's actually multiple 167 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: different multiverse theories, right, But they all share one thing 168 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: in common, which is that they're trying to explain when 169 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: there's an arbitrariness. They're trying to grapple with the fact 170 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: that our universe seems random, like it's this way and 171 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 1: not that other way. The way they explain that is 172 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:36,439 Speaker 1: by suggesting maybe every way is explored by the multiverse, 173 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,679 Speaker 1: and we just happen to live in this one, right. 174 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 1: And so when you find something in the universe which 175 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 1: seems like it could have been different, and you'll wonder 176 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: why is it this and not something else, the multiverse 177 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,680 Speaker 1: is there to coddle you and say, well, maybe everything 178 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: is explored somewhere, and there's no reason for it to 179 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: be this and not the other. It's just random. 180 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 3: Right. So that's kind of the reason why physicists considerate. 181 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 3: But as a concept, what does it mean. It means 182 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:04,439 Speaker 3: multiple universes, right, that's it's a contraction of multiple universes. 183 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:08,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, it means multiple universes. But then again, different physicists 184 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: mean different things by that. And so there's a guy 185 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,680 Speaker 1: named Max Tegmark. He's a really smart guy. I read 186 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: his book. It's called Our Mathematically Universe, and it's a 187 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: fascinating book. It's like six hundred pages. It's well, it's 188 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 1: well written. But in it he has a really nice 189 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 1: categorization of the different kinds of multiverses. So I thought 190 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: we'd follow that. 191 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 3: Okay, so wait, there's like multi multiverses. 192 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: That's right, multi multi multiverse. 193 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 3: The uni multi multi universe. 194 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 1: That's right, exactly. They all have the same agent actually, 195 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 1: so you can just pay them all directly. 196 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 3: Okay, So there's you're saying, there's a way to classify 197 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:49,439 Speaker 3: the different versions of the idea of the multiverse. 198 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right. 199 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 3: I feel like we're like three layers into the inception. 200 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: Here, be prepared for more levels. 201 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 3: I mean, talk about what it like, what is one 202 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 3: what is one version of the multiverse. It's like the 203 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 3: idea that there are multiple versions of like like our 204 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 3: universe is just one version of the universe and there 205 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 3: might be other versions of the universe out there. Right, 206 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,199 Speaker 3: that's the kind of basic idea, right. 207 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:17,840 Speaker 1: That's the whole overall arching framework. But what the multi 208 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 1: means depends on what you mean by the uni. Right. 209 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: So for example, so let's get concrete, right, all right, 210 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: some people think about the observable universe, it's our universe. 211 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: That's just everything we can see. 212 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 3: Right. 213 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,319 Speaker 1: Remember, you can't see the whole universe because light doesn't 214 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 1: travel infinitely fast. It travels at the speed of light, 215 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: and so you can only see as far as light 216 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: has had time to travel in the history of the universe. 217 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 3: Right, it's all everything we can see, because there might 218 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 3: be stuff that we can't see in the universe. 219 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 1: Exactly, there's other stuff out there. Now. Some people think, oh, 220 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: the multiverse is all these different bubbles. There's like my 221 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 1: observable universe, and then somewhere super far away, maybe there's 222 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: another me, and that other me has an observable universe 223 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: that's centered around them, Okay, And so from that concept, 224 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: the multiverse is probing the fact that the universe seems 225 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 1: to have started randomly, like why do we have the 226 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: Milky Way, and why does the Milky Way look the 227 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: way it does and not like another galaxy? You can 228 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: trace that all the way back to like the initial 229 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,439 Speaker 1: conditions of the universe. The arrangement of molecules in the 230 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: very very early universe, which inevitably led to the Milky Way. 231 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: What if that arrangement had been a tiny bit different, right, 232 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 1: You've had coffee instead of tea, you had taken that 233 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 1: break differently, or whatever, some tiny thing had been different 234 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: than the Milky Way would look different. So that simplest 235 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: multiverse is just a way of saying every possible initial 236 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: condition for the universe started somewhere else, and so all 237 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: those other possibilities might be out there. There's a version 238 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: of Jorge, you know, with the blonde hair, and there's 239 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 1: a version of the of the Earth where there's big 240 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 1: flying blue dragons streaking through the sky all the time. Right. 241 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 3: But you're sort of assuming that the space we're in 242 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 3: our universe goes on forever infinity. Yes, And you're saying 243 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 3: that a version of the multiverse is one in which 244 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 3: if you just keep going in one direction, at some 245 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 3: point things will start to kind of repeat itself, but 246 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 3: maybe not quite the same way, that's. 247 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 1: Right, because they start from different initial conditions. 248 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 3: Right, Okay, but there's still the same universe. 249 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the same space, right. 250 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 3: Okay, So that's one idea. 251 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 1: So it's the same space and the same laws of physics. 252 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,559 Speaker 1: But remember, what is the concept that that answers? What? What? 253 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 1: What problem in physics? Does that address the problem in 254 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: physics and addresses is the fact that, you know, we 255 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: don't know why we have this set of initial conditions 256 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 1: and not some other. Right, why are the particles that 257 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: started off this observable universe arranged in that way and 258 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: not another? And this is just the way of saying 259 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter because every possibility is tried, so we 260 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: don't have to answer that question anymore. 261 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 3: But why do physicists have so much trouble with this concept? 262 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 3: Like why couldn't we just be a random role of 263 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 3: to die? And that's just the way it is. Why 264 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 3: does it need whether is it? Why does there need 265 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 3: to be every possible role of to die? 266 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 1: Are you you're basically asking me why do physicists look 267 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: for answers? Right? I mean that's what job. You know, 268 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: you look at the universe and say why is it 269 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,719 Speaker 1: this and not that? Is there meaning to it? Or 270 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: is it random? Right? Because if there's meaning to it, 271 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: then you can get some insight. You could have just said, hey, look, 272 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 1: there's a one hundred elements in the periodic table and 273 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: that's all there is, and why that hundred elements? 274 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 7: I don't know. 275 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,079 Speaker 3: It's just random, right, Well, I mean no, I mean 276 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 3: in the sense that it could be. It's like I 277 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 3: have five dollars in my pocket, and you know, I 278 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 3: could spend time thinking about why I have five dollars, 279 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 3: or I could spend an infinite amount of time thinking 280 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,319 Speaker 3: about why I don't have six dollars, seven dollars, eight dollars, 281 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 3: ten dollars. Do you know what I mean? Like, why 282 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 3: can't I just be happy that with the fact that 283 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 3: I have five dollars? 284 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 1: Well, I think you hit the nail ahead. Physicists are 285 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: never happening. That's the problem, and they don't have anything 286 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: due to our deep seated depression that we need to 287 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: answer this question. No, we want to know why, and 288 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 1: the answer it's just a random choice is not satisfied. 289 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,319 Speaker 3: Okay, but this seems to be like the most vanilla 290 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 3: version of the multiverse. You're just saying that the multiverse. 291 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 3: One version of the multiverse is just that it's so 292 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,839 Speaker 3: big and there's sort of different neighborhoo where different things 293 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 3: could have happened. 294 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 1: That's right, So that's the most vanilla. So now let's 295 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: go to chocolate chip. Let's get to the slightly more 296 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: interesting multiverse. 297 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 3: It's adds in flavor. 298 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 1: What if in other parts of space, deep deep, deep, 299 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 1: far away, maybe it wasn't just the initial conditions of 300 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: where the how the particles were arranged, but maybe the 301 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: constants of the laws of physics themselves are different. Like 302 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: what if the mass of an electron is different a 303 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: bajillion light years away, or the strength of gravity is 304 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: different bijillion light years away. 305 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 3: Because there's nothing that says that's not possible. 306 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: There's nothing that says that's not possible. Because these numbers, 307 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 1: we have no reason to explain what the mass of 308 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: the electron is, we have no reason to explain why 309 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 1: gravity has the strength it does. And so you think, well, 310 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: maybe they're just random. So that's a way to answer. 311 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: You say, well, oh, it's just a random number. And 312 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 1: every possibility is tried eventually, and we're just in the 313 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: one that happens to be this one. 314 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 3: We're just in the neighborhood where the electron weighs, you know, 315 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 3: point six ev exactly. 316 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 1: And there's two varieties of this one, right, there's either 317 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 1: the laws of physics are different somewhere else in our 318 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: very very large universe, or you have like different spaces, 319 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: so like these universes are not connected, Like there's the 320 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: space of our universe, and somehow there's another universe with 321 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 1: a different set of laws of physics because the masses 322 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: of the electron are different and the strength of gravity 323 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: is different, and those spaces don't necessarily have to be connected. 324 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 3: What do you mean, like you can't travel in a 325 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 3: straight line from one area to the other one because 326 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 3: something would stop you. 327 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, that one makes a little bit more sense, because 328 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 1: it's weird to have different masses of the electrons in 329 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 1: the same space. I mean, I guess it's possible, right, 330 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:47,119 Speaker 1: but it's seems somehow more comforting if those other universes 331 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: with different laws of physics were somehow disconnected from ours. 332 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 3: Okay, but what would stop you from going to that 333 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 3: other universe? 334 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: Well, if it's not connected to ours, you just can't 335 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 1: get there, you know. 336 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 4: I Mean. 337 00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 1: We had a whole podcast about like the shape of space, right, 338 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: and we talked about how could be infinite or it 339 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: could be closed. It could be that you could travel 340 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: forever and come back to where you started et cetera. 341 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 3: It's like close pockets of space. 342 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, it could also be disconnected, right, you could have 343 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: two separate pockets of space that you just can't travel 344 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: from one to the other, like bubbles of space. Right. 345 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: And then if you have two, you could have three, 346 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: you could have four, you could have a jillion. Right, 347 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: why not? It's on sale. Take as many as your life. 348 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 3: Okay, so let's get into the other types of multiverses. 349 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 3: But first let's take a quick break. 350 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 1: With big wireless providers, what you see is never what 351 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: you get. Somewhere between the store and your first month's bill, 352 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 1: the price you thought you were paying magically skyrockets. With 353 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: mint Mobile, You'll never have to worry about gotcha's ever again. 354 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 1: When mint Mobile says fifteen dollars a month for a 355 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: three month plan, they really mean it. I've used mint 356 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 1: Mobile and the call quality is always so crisp and 357 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 1: so clear. I can recommend it to you. So say 358 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: bye bye to your overpriced wireless plans, jaw dropping monthly 359 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 1: bills and unexpected overages. You can use your own phone 360 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 1: with any mint Mobile plan and bring your phone number 361 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: along with your existing contacts, So dig your overpriced wireless 362 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 1: with mint mobiles deal and get three months a premium 363 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 1: wireless service for fifteen bucks a month.

Additional taxi, s, fees, and restrictions apply. 372 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 1: See mint mobile for details. 373 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,640 Speaker 8: AI might be the most important new computer technology ever. 374 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 8: It's storming every industry and literally billions of dollars are 375 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 8: being invested, so buckle up. The problem is that AI 376 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 8: needs a lot of speed and processing power. So how 377 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:55,440 Speaker 8: do you compete without cost spiraling out of control. It's 378 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 8: time to upgrade to the next generation of the cloud. 379 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:03,360 Speaker 8: Oracle Cloud Infrastructure or OCI. OCI is a single platform 380 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 8: for your infrastructure, database, application development, and AI needs. OCI 381 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 8: has four to eight times the bandwidth of other clouds, 382 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 8: offers one consistent price instead of variable regional pricing. And 383 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,880 Speaker 8: of course, nobody does data better than Oracle, So now 384 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 8: you can train your AI models at twice the speed 385 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,680 Speaker 8: and less than half the cost of other clouds. If 386 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:24,920 Speaker 8: you want to do more and spend less, like Uber 387 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 8: eight by eight and Data Bricks Mosaic, take a free 388 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,640 Speaker 8: test drive of oci at Oracle dot com slash strategic. 389 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 8: That's Oracle dot com slash Strategic Oracle dot com slash Strategic. 390 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: If you love iPhone, you'll love Apple Card.

Or you could 407 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 1: think maybe Daniel should have eaten something before he did 408 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: this podcast, or because all of his analogies seem to 409 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 1: be about food. But yeah, that's the general idea, okay, 410 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 1: that there could be other universes with different constants of 411 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 1: the laws of physics, which would have, you know, a 412 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 1: big impact, because if the electron weigh a different amount, 413 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 1: everything would be different, if neutrons had different if the 414 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:57,880 Speaker 1: force of gravity or the force of the strong force 415 00:19:58,000 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 1: was different, the place where everything would look. 416 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 3: Oh, I see, because these all these numbers, you know, 417 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,679 Speaker 3: these constants in the laws of physics, they seem to 418 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 3: be random. It's kind of what you're saying, right. 419 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,239 Speaker 1: Well, they we don't have explanations for them. That's not 420 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 1: the same as their random, right. One explanation for not 421 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 1: knowing why the numbers are they are what they are is, oh, 422 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: they're random, but there is no explanation, and so we 423 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 1: can just sort of put the question aside, and. 424 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 3: I see it's possible that the electron weighs as much 425 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 3: because of some mathematical fundamental, you know, construction of the universe. 426 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. Like say, for example, I lose two hundred 427 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,880 Speaker 1: bucks and the very same day you tell me, hey, 428 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 1: look I found two hundred bucks. Well that could be random, right, 429 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,120 Speaker 1: or there could be a simpler explanation, like you owe 430 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:49,440 Speaker 1: me two hundred bucks, right, yeah, right, you don't sound persuaded. 431 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:51,919 Speaker 3: I know I'm saying this is all hypothetical. 432 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 7: And. 433 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, so you know they actually three hundred bucks. Yeah, okay, 434 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: I'll wait for the check. I want to pay an 435 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 1: ice cream please. The goal of physics, remember, is to 436 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 1: explain these things. It's not just to say, well, that's 437 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: kind of a mystery head scratch, maybe it's random, right, 438 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 1: It's to say, what could explain it? Is there a 439 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,439 Speaker 1: deeper theory of physics that doesn't have these arbitrary numbers 440 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 1: in it, right, that can explain why the electron is 441 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: the way it is, that exists the way it is. 442 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 1: That would be a better theory of physics. 443 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 3: Like just saying it's random, it's just not satisfactory to 444 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 3: a physicist. 445 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 1: That's right to me. It's not satisfactory at all. It's 446 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: like saying, stop asking questions. 447 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 3: Okay. So then you have to posit the idea that 448 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 3: maybe it's not random. And if it's not random, one 449 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 3: possible explanation is that they all exist. 450 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,679 Speaker 1: You have to posit that is random and then right, 451 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 1: and that every possibility is tried somewhere, and that this 452 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 1: ours was just chosen randomly. Oh I see, okay, all right, yeah, 453 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 1: all right, all right, so let's go past chocolate chip. 454 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 3: Okay, what's another flavor of multiverse? 455 00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: This is I would think say this is like the 456 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:05,400 Speaker 1: rainbow Sherbert the multiverse favors multiverse. No, there's only four. 457 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: This one is the quantum mechanics multiverse. This one says, 458 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:12,959 Speaker 1: you know what happens when a particle has to make 459 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 1: a random choice. Right, the Shortener's cat is either dead 460 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 1: or alive, and it's random. Right, A particle goes to 461 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 1: the left split or the right slit. It's random. It's 462 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,399 Speaker 1: very uncomfortable for there to be no reason why it 463 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 1: chooses one and not the other. So this is version 464 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:31,199 Speaker 1: of quantum mechanics called the multi world's hypothesis multi World's interpretation, 465 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 1: where both happen, the universe splits and both things happen, 466 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 1: the particle goes into the left slit and the right slit. 467 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,439 Speaker 1: Shortener's cat is dead in one universe and alive in 468 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:45,400 Speaker 1: the other one. So every quantum interaction generates another universe 469 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: where the other random thing has happened. 470 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:52,679 Speaker 3: So every choice of every electron and quantum particle in 471 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 3: all of existence, every time it makes a decision, generates 472 00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 3: a whole new universe. 473 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not a tiny theory, right, I mean we 474 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:02,680 Speaker 1: judge these theories based on like how simple are they? 475 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 1: How compactly can you explain everything? And this theory generates 476 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:11,360 Speaker 1: a whole entire universe for every particle interaction ever, right, 477 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 1: And that's a lot of universes, So it's not a 478 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:15,359 Speaker 1: whole lot of simplicity. 479 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 3: Is the idea that they like these things get generated 480 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:22,159 Speaker 3: or is it just that everything, every possibility exists at 481 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 3: the same time, do you know what I mean? Like, 482 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 3: is it kind of like it actually pops into existing? 483 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 1: Is it into the past as well as the theatre? Yeah, 484 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: I think they are created in that moment. 485 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,360 Speaker 3: They only start from when the choice happened. 486 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, because they split, right, So the number of universes 487 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 1: is growing. 488 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 3: Oh, and we all just exist at the same time, 489 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 3: like in the same spot in the universe in reality, 490 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 3: do you know what I mean? Like are we on 491 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 3: top of each other? 492 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 1: That's not a well defined question, right, We're not in 493 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 1: the same space because you know, our past is different 494 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: from the other universe's past, right in our in our past, 495 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 1: the cat is dead, or in their pass the cat 496 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: is alive, and so we can't interact with them at all. 497 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 1: They would be like in a different space. I mean, 498 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: there's be a universe be just as valid. It'd be 499 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 1: ice cream and pretzels and all sorts of stuff in 500 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 1: that universe as well, although it would just be slightly different, 501 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 1: and we can't travel from one to the other. They're 502 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 1: like causally disconnected, right because they have a different past history, right, 503 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: So you can't get from one of the others. So 504 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 1: where is that one? That question requires you to like 505 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: put both of them in some space and then answer 506 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:29,400 Speaker 1: the question of how to get from one to the other. 507 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: But they're just different, you know. They're like it's like 508 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: asking how close is the page in this book to 509 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,959 Speaker 1: that page and that other book? In China, you know, 510 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: like they're in different books, you know, right, okay, yeah, 511 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 1: so that's the quantum mechanical one, and that's sort of 512 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,959 Speaker 1: mind blowing. And before people think, oh, that's ridiculous, remember 513 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: that there is no satisfactory answer to the question in 514 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 1: quantum mechanics of how that randomness is chosen. 515 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,440 Speaker 3: Why do electron turn left and not right? 516 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,879 Speaker 1: Yes? Exactly? Why left and not right? Yeah? And so 517 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: that randomness is for us, right, and you'd like to 518 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 1: have an answer, and the answer we have from quantum 519 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 1: mechanics to the Copenhagen interpretation. The alternative to the multi 520 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 1: worlds says that it makes a choice. The universe throws 521 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: a dice, right, Like that's kind of crazy. Also, you know, 522 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,679 Speaker 1: like where is this dice? Who's in charge of throwing it? 523 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:16,919 Speaker 1: How does it work? You know, is it really random? 524 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 3: Why not strange? I find it natural, doesn't you know? 525 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:22,399 Speaker 3: Like the universe just made the decision, and that's what 526 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 3: it is. 527 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: You like to live in a very decisive universe. 528 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 3: It's just like move forwards, yeah, you know. Okay, So 529 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 3: that's the quantum mechanics multi world version of a multiverse. 530 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:41,640 Speaker 1: Yeah exactly. 531 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 3: And so you're saying there's a fourth type, right. 532 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 1: And so we're getting crazier and crazier. Yeah, that was 533 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 1: the rainbow, Subert. So now where it's like, I don't know, 534 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 1: this is the version of the multi verse where you 535 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:55,160 Speaker 1: like empty the freezer and mix everything together in a blender. Okay, 536 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 1: rainbow rainbow Srbert Pistachio, I put in some liquorice in there. 537 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 1: This is the idea that every possible theory of physics 538 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:10,199 Speaker 1: has its own universe, right. And to think about this 539 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: you have to think about the relationship between physics and math. Right, 540 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 1: So we use math to describe what's happening in the 541 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: physical universe, right, But sometimes you can come up with 542 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 1: a theory that doesn't reflect what's actually happening. Right, And 543 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: this happens all the time. Theorists physicists come up with 544 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 1: ideas like, oh, maybe the universe works this way. I 545 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 1: have a beautiful mathematical theory which could describe a universe. 546 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 1: But then they go and they check it in, No, 547 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 1: doesn't describe our universe. 548 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:38,440 Speaker 3: Like I could say F equals three M, yeah, and 549 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 3: that would be a theory of a universe, but it 550 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,439 Speaker 3: wouldn't describe what's happening around me. 551 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. I mean, not that specific example, but that's 552 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: the general idea construct a different set of physical laws 553 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,360 Speaker 1: that are self consistent. Right. They have to be self consistent, 554 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 1: non contradictory, and have all the right mathematical properties. There 555 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 1: are more theories of physics than just the one that 556 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 1: describes universe. Right, So Max Tegmark, he thinks that the 557 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,919 Speaker 1: universe is mathematical, right, that because the universe can be 558 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: represented by a mathematical construct, which is, you know, laws 559 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: of physics. That means that it is those laws of physics, 560 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,919 Speaker 1: which means that if there are other laws of physics 561 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 1: that you could put together, they also have their own 562 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 1: real universes out there, and somewhere out there there is 563 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 1: a universe following F equals three m A or whatever. 564 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 1: The other laws of physics are. 565 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 3: Ah, not just the constant in our formulation of the 566 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 3: laws of physics, but just like a whole different equation. 567 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, imagine far in the future we've answered 568 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: all the questions about the constants. We know why the 569 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: electron has a mass, it is why the Higgs is 570 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: where the gravity all this stuff. We still have the 571 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 1: laws themselves. We have to wonder, like why these laws? 572 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,400 Speaker 1: Why does the universe follow these laws and not these 573 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: other very reasonable set of laws that my math professor 574 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 1: over there put together and could work for his own universe, right, Really, 575 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:57,360 Speaker 1: why these are not some other? 576 00:27:58,040 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 6: So? 577 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 3: Like what are some things that could change mathically? Do 578 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 3: you know what I mean? Like F doesn't equal? 579 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,639 Speaker 1: I mean, is that the only physics equation? 580 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:05,919 Speaker 9: You know? 581 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:07,879 Speaker 1: He you keep going back to that one. I'm going 582 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: to challenge you give me another physics equation. 583 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 3: I mean, I could say things like the Lagrangian and 584 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 3: potential energy, but you know, I'm not sure a lot 585 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 3: of people understand that. 586 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: No, that's exactly right, Like there are i mean, even 587 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,439 Speaker 1: the whole concept of how energy works. Right, Like we 588 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,159 Speaker 1: talked to another podcast about the theory of everything, How everything 589 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 1: we're discovering is just the consequence of the universe at 590 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 1: its lowest level. You know, is the universe at its 591 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 1: lowest level strings and they have some interaction and everything 592 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 1: follows from that. Or are they tiny quantum loops or 593 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: are they point particles in the way they interact? Right, 594 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 1: Everything that that they that makes the universe universy comes 595 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 1: from its basic structure, and so you could ask like, 596 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: could its basic structure be different? Could those rules of 597 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 1: interaction be different? 598 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 4: Right? 599 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you can you can start from a totally 600 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: different point and say I'm going to build a universe 601 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 1: out of tiny puppies, right, and they interact in this way, 602 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 1: and then you can get a universe. Right, Like, build 603 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:02,719 Speaker 1: a universe. What would it look like? Maybe it wouldn't 604 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 1: be very interesting, Maybe it wouldn't have this rich, complex 605 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 1: structure that we have right, right, but it's a valid universe. 606 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 1: You could have a universe with nothing in it, a 607 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 1: completely empty universe. Right there, you go, nothing in it, 608 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 1: no interactions, Boom, there's a lot of there's a theory 609 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 1: of physics. 610 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 3: That might be out there, right, that's the idea. 611 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 1: That's the idea that if there's a consistent set of laws, 612 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: then it exists. Right. That would be like the you know, 613 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: the all black chocolate, that deep chocolate is nothing in it. 614 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 3: Okay, So let me see if I can break this down. 615 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 3: There's four kinds of multiverses. The first kind of multiverse 616 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 3: is one of where it's just so big that you 617 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 3: can live in different neighborhoods of it. That's right, and 618 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 3: which might be different versions of each other, just because 619 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 3: space is infinite and you're at some point going to 620 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 3: repeat this universe, but maybe slightly different within our own 621 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 3: still sort of universe space exactly. 622 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 1: And those different neighborhoods are all different because they started 623 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 1: slightly differently in the very beginning, and that's the randomness 624 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 1: that that first vanilla the multiverses is exploring, Okay, very 625 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: beginning of how the particles were put together. 626 00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,959 Speaker 3: Okay, version number two, the chocolate chip is ways out 627 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 3: the chocolate chip. Yeah, the chocolate chip is that maybe 628 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 3: there are other pockets in our universe where the constant 629 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 3: of our the loss of physics, are different. And then 630 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,080 Speaker 3: there's a version, the quantum mechanics version, where that says 631 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 3: every time you open the box and the cat dies, 632 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 3: that generates a whole universe. And there's one where the 633 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 3: loss of physics itself, the math changes from universe to universe, 634 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 3: that's right. 635 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, And for comic book fans, we can have a 636 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: level five, which is Marvel Universe versus DC Universe versus 637 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 1: independent Upstart comic universe. 638 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, but then you had infinite crisis on infinite Earth 639 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 3: and that all collapse and then you have to reboot 640 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 3: fifty two a few years ago, and there's a version 641 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 3: of the universe where the DC movies are actually good. 642 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 1: But you know therese are Oh I like the DC movies. No, yes, 643 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 1: they are good. I am pro d c oh Man. 644 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 3: You you are the anti Danieler. 645 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 1: That's right, We're gonna have a DC versus Marvel throwdown. 646 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 3: On that note, let's take a quick break. 647 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 1: When you pop a piece of cheese into your mouth 648 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 1: or enjoy a rich spoonful of Greek yogurt, you're probably 649 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 1: not thinking about the environmental impact of each and every bite. 650 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 1: But the people in the dairy industry are. US Dairy 651 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 1: has set themselves some ambitious sustainability goals, including being greenhouse 652 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 1: gas neutral by twenty to fifty That's why they're working 653 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 1: hard every day to find new ways to reduce waste, 654 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 1: conserve natural resources, and drive down greenhouse gas emissions. Take water, 655 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 1: for example, most dairy farms reuse water up to four 656 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 1: times the same water cools the milk, cleans equipment, washes 657 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: the barn, and irrigates the crops. How is US dairy 658 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 1: tackling greenhouse gases? Many farms use anaerobic digestors that turn 659 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 1: the methane from maneure into renewable energy that can power farms, towns, 660 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 1: and electric cars. So the next time you grab a 661 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 1: slice of pizza or lick an ice cream cone, know 662 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 1: that dairy farmers and processors around the country are using 663 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 1: the latest practices and innovations to provide the nutrient dense 664 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 1: dairy products we love with less of an impact.

But at the course, the 692 00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 3: same idea is that there are different versions of our 693 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 3: universe out there in existence. 694 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: That's right. 695 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 3: My big question is how are we ever going to 696 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 3: know if these other universes exist? Like, is it even 697 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 3: possible to verify that they're there, that they exist, and 698 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 3: could we get there? Ever? 699 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:06,480 Speaker 1: The short answer is probably not right, And the long 700 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:08,960 Speaker 1: answer is it depends on the flavor of multiverse. We're 701 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 1: talking about the simplest one. We were talking about, you know, 702 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 1: things that are just sort of far away. Then yeah, 703 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 1: you just wait long enough, and eventually the light from 704 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 1: there will reach us, and we will see that other 705 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:22,359 Speaker 1: version of you that married that other person and you know, 706 00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 1: didn't have kids and gets to spend their money on 707 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 1: cool bicycles and cars and all sorts of stuff. And 708 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,880 Speaker 1: you can answer the question, what I've been happier. 709 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:32,880 Speaker 3: Oh, you could zip through the universe. You would eventually 710 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:34,360 Speaker 3: find another Earth. 711 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, if the universe really is infinite and the initial 712 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 1: conditions are random, then everything that's possible will happen, and 713 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 1: you just have to go far enough away. Max Techbar 714 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 1: tried to calculate, like how far is that away from us? 715 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 1: Is that other you? You got some ridiculous numbers like 716 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 1: ten to the ten to the one hundred, so like, 717 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a number that's bigger than I can 718 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: even imagine. Remember it's ten to the eighty is the 719 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 1: number of particles in the universe, So ten to the 720 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: ten to the one one hundred is like a good jigabilion. 721 00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 1: But in principle, that person is out there. 722 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 3: It's out there, it's just separated by distance from us. 723 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's one possible multiverse that you could actually test, 724 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 1: but it would take forever and so it's not really satisfying. 725 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 1: The other flavors are mostly different spaces, you know, like 726 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: the ones where the laws of physics are different or 727 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:25,360 Speaker 1: quantum mechanics has made a different choice. Those universes we 728 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:28,400 Speaker 1: can't ever visit, We can't interact with them. Almost by construction, 729 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:30,960 Speaker 1: there's no way to interact with them. And so if 730 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:32,920 Speaker 1: you can't interact with them, you can't like send a 731 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 1: probe or get data from them. You know, then there's 732 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 1: no way to ever prove that they exist. You know, 733 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 1: there's no way to ever say here, we can visit them, 734 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:44,919 Speaker 1: or we can we can demonstrate conclusively that it's real 735 00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 1: and not just an idea. 736 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:49,319 Speaker 3: Like we can't ever touch it, touch of those other 737 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 3: universes or get there. But you're saying that you were 738 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:53,799 Speaker 3: telling me the to day that we might be able 739 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 3: to prove mathematically that they exist. 740 00:35:56,120 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. There's a nice argument by several people, including Shot Carol, 741 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 1: that says that what if you had a theory of 742 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 1: physics which require the multiverse, right, what if the only 743 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,920 Speaker 1: theory of physics we could come up with here require 744 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,439 Speaker 1: there to be other universes, and the hard work there 745 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 1: is figuring that out. 746 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:15,759 Speaker 3: Meaning in theory, you could know that there is a 747 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:19,680 Speaker 3: multiverse and that other multiverses exist, but you could still 748 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:21,720 Speaker 3: not be able to touch and re visit them. 749 00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, it's hard to come up with a theory 750 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:29,320 Speaker 1: that absolutely requires the existence of the multiverse. The unique 751 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 1: solution to the theory is that the multiverse exists. So 752 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 1: in principle, I think Sean is right, it's possible, but 753 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 1: I think it's very difficult to construct that kind of 754 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 1: theory to prove the multiverse exists. 755 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:43,319 Speaker 3: So so it kind of seems like it's kind of 756 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 3: a if we can't ever go to these other universes 757 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:50,279 Speaker 3: or visit them, it's almost like it's pretty much just 758 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,399 Speaker 3: the U universe, you know, like that's right, the one 759 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 3: we have is pretty much it for us. It's pretty 760 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 3: much the only one we have, right for all. 761 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,880 Speaker 1: Practice vises, and I think that's where we should focus. 762 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:04,880 Speaker 1: And the reason I'm down on the multiverse is that 763 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 1: I feel like a little bit it's it's giving up, 764 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:08,719 Speaker 1: you know, it's saying, Okay, we don't know what the 765 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:11,720 Speaker 1: massive electron is. But maybe there is no answer, Maybe 766 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 1: the electron is different here and somewhere else, and so 767 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,759 Speaker 1: let's just stop asking. And I never want to stop asking, right, 768 00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:18,840 Speaker 1: I always want to say, maybe there's another theory that 769 00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:21,200 Speaker 1: explains it. Maybe there's a way to unravel this mystery. 770 00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:24,759 Speaker 1: So the multiverse and the anthropic principle, it's a way 771 00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 1: of sort of shrugging and saying, oh no, and that's 772 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:28,360 Speaker 1: not very science. 773 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 3: Do you want to keep it? Taking that whole look 774 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:34,800 Speaker 3: for that one sort of unifying theory that explains. 775 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:37,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, exact universe. So far, we've been making progress so far, 776 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 1: we've figured things out. So far, when things have seemed inexplicable, 777 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,600 Speaker 1: we'd rerealized why they had to be that way, and 778 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 1: it turned out there could have been no other way 779 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,360 Speaker 1: because we understood something in a level deeper which explained it. 780 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:51,319 Speaker 1: So I think the multiverse and we're going to look 781 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 1: back on it one hundred years and laugh, you know, 782 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 1: and we'll say, oh, those guys had no idea what 783 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 1: was going on. Everything they thought was random was determined 784 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:00,839 Speaker 1: by laws of physics they just had discovered yet. 785 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I think you're right. I think The lesson 786 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:06,239 Speaker 3: is to really focus on the one universe we have. 787 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:08,440 Speaker 1: You know, this is the only one I've got, so 788 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,120 Speaker 1: I'm going to spend my time trying to figure it out. 789 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:13,240 Speaker 3: So make your choices carefully. 790 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:16,400 Speaker 1: That's right. That's right, because you only have one go 791 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: around so far until physics finds the multiverse. 792 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 3: All right, thank you for joining us.
